The Truffle Hunter

I fell in love with this book immediately! the illustrations are wonderful, very engaging and humourous. They have lots of details which make you feel you are in France. The story is adorable,as is the pig. I loved it for myself as a lover of children's books and could hardly wait to share it with my grandchildren. Good intoduction to other countries and their different customs and food. Joyful read.

WONDERFUL!!

I am an anal retentive twenty-something. And in my anal retentiveness I started storing up childrens books for the future. Spawned by my love and fascination with the ever-growing Petite-Connoisure series I began looking for more books along those very same lines. This is an adorable little read. Not too involved yet not too simple. A great introduction for littles ones on one of the animals known to hunt truffles paired with the sweet story of a seemingly simple-minded pig. This is for adults who love truffles and all involved, pig lovers, parents with children who they want to learn early on about some of the finer things in life, and for parents who just want a cute story about a plucky little pig.
